There are two general types of radomes, the "thin wall" and "sandwich" types. Thin wall radomes are considered to be thin relative to the wavelength of the radar. They are generally useful when the radar frequency is low enough to permit a skin thickness which will satisfy the structural requirements. Sandwich radomes consist of two.

Provides guidance material useful to repair facilities in the maintenance of weather radomes. The Federal Aviation Administration is an operating mode of the U.S. Department of Transportation.

We are a 100% member-supported association of United States and Royal Canadian Air Force veterans, families and supporters. Our primary mission and purpose is: To preserve the history of Cold War era air and missile defense of the North American continent.

Our primary mission and current focus is to document Aircraft Control and Warning (AC&W) Squadrons, (later called simply Radar) Squadrons which were in the United States, both the "lower 48" and Alaska, and Hawaii.

This advisory circular (AC) provides guidance for the initial and follow-on airworthiness approval of aircraft weather radar systems meeting the latest revision of the Technical Standard Order (TSO)-C63, Airborne Weather Radar Equipment.

A radome (a portmanteau of "radar" and "dome") is a structural, weatherproof enclosure that protects a radar antenna. [1] The radome is constructed of material transparent to radio waves. Radomes protect the antenna from weather and conceal antenna electronic equipment from view.

Jan 31, 2023 · According to AC 43-14, a properly designed and maintained radome permits the passage of the radar’s transmitted signals and return echoes with minimum distortion and absorption. This...

Protect critical radar equipment with the Dometic HSA RaDome. Compact, corrosion-resistant, and efficient cooling for marine radome environments.

A radome is a weatherproof geodesic prefabricated building structure that protects radar and antenna systems from extreme weather: wind, blowing sand, snow, ice, rain, ultra violet sunlight, temperature, fungus and corrosion.
